Summary

With a dam height of 24 feet and a storage capacity of 240 acre-feet, this Earth dam on Briar Creek provides essential water supply for agricultural needs in the region. The lake also offers recreational opportunities, making it a valuable asset for the local community.

Although the dam has not been inspected since 1987 and its hazard potential is labeled as "Not Available," the risk assessment indicates a high risk level. Despite this, the condition assessment is marked as "Not Rated," suggesting a lack of recent information on the structural integrity of the dam. With a spillway width of 0 and no locks, the dam's design features indicate a straightforward structure with limited hydraulic capabilities.

As water resource and climate enthusiasts, the data on Corsicana Country Club Lake presents an intriguing case for further investigation into the safety and maintenance of the dam. The historical significance of the structure, combined with its dual purpose of irrigation and recreation, highlights the importance of monitoring and ensuring its continued functionality for the community it serves.

Condition Assessment

Satisfactory
No existing or potential dam safety deficiencies are recognized. Acceptable performance is expected under all loading conditions (static, hydrologic, seismic) in accordance with the minimum applicable state or federal regulatory criteria or tolerable risk guidelines.
Fair
No existing dam safety deficiencies are recognized for normal operating conditions. Rare or extreme hydrologic and/or seismic events may result in a dam safety deficiency. Risk may be in the range to take further action. Note: Rare or extreme event is defined by the regulatory agency based on their minimum
Poor A dam safety deficiency is recognized for normal operating conditions which may realistically occur. Remedial action is necessary. POOR may also be used when uncertainties exist as to critical analysis parameters which identify a potential dam safety deficiency. Investigations and studies are necessary.
Unsatisfactory
A dam safety deficiency is recognized that requires immediate or emergency remedial action for problem resolution.
Not Rated
The dam has not been inspected, is not under state or federal jurisdiction, or has been inspected but, for whatever reason, has not been rated.
Not Available
Dams for which the condition assessment is restricted to approved government users.

Hazard Potential Classification

High
Dams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation will probably cause loss of human life.
Significant
Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environment damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be in areas with population and significant infrastructure.
Low
Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property.
Undetermined
Dams for which a downstream hazard potential has not been designated or is not provided.
Not Available
Dams for which the downstream hazard potential is restricted to approved government users.
